Laravel Inactivity time setting

Question

When user logged-in and remains inactive, How many seconds after that system logouts the user automatically? How to change this setting?

Answer 1

Assuming you are using the session driver to handle your authentication, you can change the time period for an idle session to expire in the /app/config/session.php file.

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Session Lifetime
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here you may specify the number of minutes that you wish the session
| to be allowed to remain idle before it expires. If you want them
| to immediately expire on the browser closing, set that option.
|
*/

'lifetime' => 120,

'expire_on_close' => false,
